NIS2 created the pressure; CyFun® creates the path.
CyberFundamentals (CyFun®) Framework Training – The practical implementation of NIS2 in Belgium
Learn how CyFun® translates the NIS2 Directive into controls, maturity, evidence collection, and conformity assessment. A practical add-on to the PECB NIS2 Directive Lead Implementer and Foundation training courses.
This one-day training course is designed for professionals who already understand the NIS2 Directive and now want to learn how its requirements are translated into a practical implementation and evidence-based compliance approach.
The training focuses on the CyberFundamentals Framework (CyFun®), the European framework that helps organizations structure cybersecurity measures, assess maturity, and demonstrate compliance in a practical and measurable way.
This course perfectly complements the PECB NIS2 Directive Lead Implementer and Foundation programs. While NIS2 explains the regulatory requirements and governance framework, CyFun® demonstrates how to operationalize those requirements through controls, assurance levels, self-assessments, maturity scoring, and preparation for verification or certification.
The course is highly practical. Rather than repeating the fundamentals of NIS2, it provides a focused translation of NIS2 into the CyFun® framework. Participants will learn about the different assurance levels, the available tools, how maturity scoring works, what evidence is required, how CyFun® fits within Belgium’s NIS2 implementation, and its role within the broader European cybersecurity landscape.
What is included in the CyberFundamentals (CyFun®) Framework training?
A clear positioning of CyFun® as a practical bridge between NIS2 obligations and actionable cybersecurity measures.
An overview of the origins of CyFun®, the role of the Belgian Centre for Cybersecurity (CCB), and the Belgian NIS2 context.
An in-depth walkthrough of the CyFun® structure: functions, categories, subcategories, controls, requirements, and guidance.
A practical explanation of the Basic, Important, and Essential assurance levels, including how organizations determine the appropriate level.
A walkthrough of the CyFun® tools: selection tool, self-assessment, maturity scores, mappings, key measures, and supporting templates.
An explanation of self-assessment, verification, certification, Conformity Assessment Bodies, and the link with ISO/IEC 27001 as an alternative or parallel pathway.
A European module on NIS2 transposition and the positioning of CyFun® outside Belgium, with a focus on countries where CyFun® is used or being monitored.
An implementation workshop in which participants translate scope and risk into controls, evidence, priorities, and a roadmap.
Practical focus
This training course builds on existing knowledge of NIS2 and focuses on the practical application of the CyberFundamentals Framework (CyFun®).
The fundamental principles of the NIS2 Directive are therefore not covered again in detail.
